Producing Silicon from Silica in an Alternative Furnace to that of the Arc Furnace: A New Approach to Purifying Silicon
This technology is a new technique of producing silicon from silica in an alternative furnace to the current used arc furnace. With this new technique, the low of solar silicon will dramatically be reduced. Also, the procedure eliminates two primary sources of impurity contamination of the silicon. Background: Historically, the photovoltaics industry...
